Answer:

Group 4A (or IVA) of the periodic table includes the nonmetal carbon (C), the metalloids silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), the metals tin (Sn) and lead (Pb), and the yet-unnamed artificially-produced element ununquadium (Uuq).

The Group 4A elements have four valence electrons in their highest-energy orbitals (ns2np2). Carbon and silicon can form ionic compounds by gaining four electrons, forming the carbide anion (C4-) and silicide anion (Si4-), but they more frequently form compounds through covalent bonding. Tin and lead can lose either their outermost p electrons to form 2+ charges (Sn2+, the stannous ion, and Pb2+, the plumbous ion) or their outermost s and p electrons to form 4+ charges (Sn4+, the stannic ion, and Pb4+, the plumbic ion).

Carbon (C, Z=6).

Carbon is most familiar as a black solid is graphite, coal, and charcoal, or as the hard, crystalline diamond form. The name is derived from the Latin word for charcoal, carbo. It is found in the Earth's crust at a concentration of 480 ppm, making it the 15th most abundant element. It is found in form of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, in minerals such as limestone, marble, and dolomite (a mixture of calcium and

Which is responsible for the formation of rust on metals?(1 point)

Rainbow [258]

The correct answers about rusting, air pollution and products of water with rock are:

Option A. oxidation

Option D. Pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain.

Option B. clay minerals and calcium carbonate

<h3>What is rusting?</h3>

Rusting is the process by which a metal especially reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere and water vapor to form a hydrated oxide of the metal known as hydrated iron (iii) oxide. This is known as rust.

The process is an oxidation process; option A.

<h3>How does air pollution impact chemical weathering?</h3>

Air pollution is the presence of substances in air known as pollutants which makes the air impure.

Air pollution impact chemical weathering as the pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain which weathers rocks; option D.

<h3>What products are produced when water reacts with sodium in rocks?</h3>

The reaction of water with sodium in rocks result in the formation of clay minerals and calcium carbonate also as limestone, marble or chalk; option B.

In conclusion, the presence of pollutants in air results in acid rain and hence rock weathering.

Describe a Mesosaurus.

ElenaW [278]

Mesosaurus lived in freshwater lakes and ponds. Elongated and slim, it measured about 3.3 feet long. The skull and tail were both long and narrow, and the animal probably undulated through the water as it fed on small crustaceans and other prey with its jaws, which were full of long, thin, pointed teeth.

Which has not been a major source of CFCs

ipn [44]

Answer : Any natural sources of CFC's are not known only the major sources like aerosols, propellants, refrigerants,etc are known. So, if any natural sources are given then it cannot be called as a major source for emitting CFC into environment.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

NH3 has greater water solubility due to intermoleculate interactions

Explanation:

Hi:

If we represent the structures of NH3 and SbH3 we can see that they are similar to the naked eye, this is because N and Sb belong to the same group of the periodic table (group 15).

However, the electronegativity of N is greater than that of Sb. The NH3 molecule is polar and can form an intermolecular interaction called hydrogen bridge with water.

Sb is less electronegative than N. The SBH3 molecule forms an intermolecular interaction with water called dipole-induced dipole.

The zone with positive charge density of the water molecule (hydrogens) is oriented towards the zone with positive charge density of SBH3 (the pair of electrons not shared)

Stronger intermolecular junctions allow greater solubility of NH3 molecules.
